To SHRED or Not to SHRED?

Once you allow information to leave your site – in the trash or in the hands of a Richmond recycling company – you’ve lost control. You have put yourself and your company at risk. Any kind of record – customer lists, inter-office memos, payroll information, and much more – could be used to compromise your organization’s security.

In fact, under various federal and Virginia state privacy laws, if your personnel files or other types of records are disclosed to outside parties – even by accident – it could be grounds for a lawsuit.
